Nashville Predators over New Jersey Devils 1st 60 Minutes ONLY: NJ is 4-7 vs top 10 teams. Nj has had a good run but regressing to their mean. Nj is 2-8 in their last 10. Nj will go with their 3rd string goaltender who has had 2 relief appearances so far. He has looked good but starting a game and coming in via relief is 2 different animals. Leading scorer Hall is questionable for tonight. This will be the 11th straight game that Nj will have had a rink change. The biggest difference for these 2 teams is on defense where Nash is ranked 2nd on the road while NJ is ranked 20th at home. Lastly Nash has played the 3rd ranked strength of schedule while NJ is 26th. I have this game at 1.58 giving us excellent value.
